The one-year countdown to the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics is officially on. And it's Canada's chance to shine on the world stage.

It would be great for Canada to have the Olympics be a legacy of amazing performances and one of the world's greatest parties.

But will we see the results of the Canadian Olympic Committee's Own The Podium program in the medal standings next year? Are we properly funding our athletes to achieve the desired success? Have your say in our forum.
